First, I am not suggesting that I believe the following to be true, nor that I have experience to suggest it is true (I have zero hands at 2/4).

But, what about the possibility that the winning "crazy" players are in fact colluding in a way that makes their win rate exceptional and they are able to makes these otherwise laggy plays in order to cover and bring their win rate into a "normal" range.

Again, I am NOT suggesting I have any evidence of this as it would relate to Hock. However, it was definitly a suspicion of mine as related to the old "DERB". It would actually be surprising to find there was no such actin in the 2/4 stars game, but only those who have played in it can speak to that.
